Ingredients

5 vegan graham-style crackers
3 tablespoons vegan butter
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup vegan peanut butter
1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips

Preparation

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a food processor, add the vegan graham-style crackers and pulse until you have fine crumbs. Add the vegan butter, light brown sugar, and ground cinnamon and pulse until combined. The mixture should be crumbly and hold together when pressed.

Using a medium cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Use your fingers to press the cookie dough into a round disk, about 1/4-inch thick. Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely on the baking sheet.

Once the cookies have cooled, spread a generous layer of vegan peanut butter on top of each cookie. Place the vegan chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 15 second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Spoon the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer of each cookie. Let the chocolate set, about 15-20 minutes.

Once the chocolate has set, your Vegan Tagalong Cookies are ready to enjoy! Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
